This study investigated the use of seed extract from Moringa oleifera Lamark (MO) for both clarifying the sugarcane juice and removing fermentation contaminants that originated during the 24 h storage of the freshly cut ...

This study aimed to use RNA-Seq to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in muscle of uncastrated Nelore males phenotypically divergent for ribeye muscle area (REA). A total of 80 animals were phenotyped for REA, ...

Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) is the main pest of maize in Brazil and its control has been targeted by Bt maize hybrids. Generally, Bt maize hybrids possess the transgenic locus in a hemizygous condition, that is, ...

Background: The aim of this study was to use transcriptome RNA-Seq data from longissimus thoracis muscle of uncastrated Nelore males to identify hub genes based on co-expression network obtained from differentially expressed ...

The marbling rate evaluation is difficult and expensive, requiring slaughter of the animal or ultrasound measurement. Thus, this trait is generally not included in animal breeding programs. The use of molecular techniques ...

Application of composted tannery sludge (CTS) could promote a shift in the structure of soil microbial communities. Although the effect of CTS on bacterial community has been studied, it is unclear how the composition and ...

A large amount of GRAS (generally recognized as safe) salts and concentrations were evaluated in in vitro tests (inhibition of mycelial growth on PDA dishes) against Lasiodiplodia theobromae, the causal agent of citrus ...

Guavas are tropical climacteric fruit with a short postharvest shelf life at room temperature. This study aims to extend the shelf life of red guavas ‘Pedro Sato’ using edible coatings of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ...

With agricultural expansion in Amazonian regions, studies are needed to verify the effect of mechanization on the soils of the regions. This study aimed to assess soil physical attributes under different compaction conditions ...

The aim of this study was to select bacterial strains with biochemical capability to tolerate high concentration of chromium (Cr) in soils. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) were isolated from the root nodules of ...

Research focused on identify abiotic stress-tolerant genotypes is highly desirable since their use may reduce costs of soil and crop management and productivity losses. The aim of this study was to determine the behavior ...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of carbohydrate supplementation on the propagation of the orchid Cattleya schilleriana. The 120-d-old seedlings were subcultured in fructose-, glucose-, or ...

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of the application of hyperbaric pressures 100 (control), 200, 400, 600 and 800 kPa at ambient temperature (23 ± 1 °C) for 2, 4 or 6 d, followed by 2 d at under ambient ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the supplementation and aging in the gluteus biceps and triceps brachii muscles of lamb. Forty-eight Santa Inês lambs, with 15 kg average initial weight were slaughtered ...

Soil and water resources must be conserved and protected. However, the management of production activities causes a change in the quality of these natural resources due to accumulation in soil of potentially toxic metals. ...

Here, we report the draft genomic sequences and annotation of Streptomyces misionensis ACT66 and Streptomyces albidoflavus ACT77, which are two bacteria with potential application for phytopathogen biocontrol.

The filter cake from sugar cane processing is rich in organic matter and nutrients, which favors the proliferation of microorganisms with potential to deconstruct plant biomass. From the metagenomic data of this material, ...

The embryonic development of parabronchi occurs mainly during the second half of incubation in precocious birds, which makes this phase sensitive to possible morphological modifications induced by O2 supply limitation. ...

Marinobacter is a Gammaproteobacterium and member of the family Alteromonadaceae. Some Marinobacter species degrade hydrocarbons and aromatic compounds, raising the possibility of applications in marine bioremediation. ...
